Good Morning! I hope your week is off to a great start. I am so excited about this week's challenge over at Tuesday Morning Sketches. Oh my goodness - this has been a fun one to put together. I am sponsoring this week and the prize is a nice selection of handmade flowers... made by me!

So this week's challenge is to create a card or project using handmade flowers. I combed through many tutorials on You Tube and other blogs to learn as many types of flowers as I could. You've seen some recent work with flowers I've made using Penny Duncan's SVG files which is sort of how this challenge got started.

For this marigold, I followed a tutorial I found on You Tube by an extremely talented paper artist named Claire, you can see her video here. These were pretty easy to make. I even created my own SVG by importing a digital image into SCAL that look very much like the punches she used. I am so proud of myself for getting that figured out!

I am a mother of 3 amazing young adults! I am a proud momma of a Navy Sailor, a 2nd year college student and a boy entering college soon. In my spare time, I love to cook, read, stamp and make 3D paper projects. I've been a papercrafter for 22+ years and I love every minute of it. I decided I didn't have enough to do, so I also "own" a challenge blog, Tuesday Morning Sketches.
